Basket Alignment

[Cardboardcat15]

Ok, I've got 4 RE SE motors and the corresponding recones from Fi. These are being reconed to 15's. I am currently gluing the baskets onto the motors, but I think i kind of fucked up the first basket.

My question to those of you who do this frequently/for a living is

A: How close to being exactly aligned with the gap/pole piece does the basket have to be in order to not cause the coil and suspension to move off axis?

and

B: Judging from these pictures, am I good to leave this basket on? Or should I get the basket off and re-do it?

here are some pictures showing how the basket off a bit.

One side of the motor/basket joint

and another.

And then some bolt holes.

Pretty straight

not so much

The bolts still will thread easily, but I don't want to waste any more CA glue covering the bolt heads just to have to pull everything apart again. Thanks for any and all help.

As long as it threads fine, and the recone is shimmer center, you should be fine. At least it should. That's why you shim and center. I think I'm right.

Did you ca glue the basket down?

Yep, CA glued it down. I'm just worried that even though I'll shim the coil, since the basket is off (meaning the rim where I glue the surround will be off), it'll offset the entire cone/coil assembly over time. Maybe I'm overthinking things here. lol.
